Rd 9 Mariners vs Fury

[Matt--Simon]

Were back after a week off to play one game and then another two weeks break this draw is terrible.

After probably our worst performance of the year against Gold Coast we had one weeks break and i think we will bounce back and make our best performance of the year, going one better then Brisbane did against Heart my prediction is 5-0. I know its a long shot but i think its possible especially if Perez is 100% and can play the full 90 minutes.

Is Olly back this week or still on tour... would love to see Amini on the bench this week ... when Perez gets tired ... have Amini for the last 20 mins or so...

 

[Matt--Simon]

Australia's last game in the four nation tournement was 2 days ago so i think olly will play some part

Amini away with the Young Socceroos U20 qualifiers however

Ive heard that we are allowed on the pitch after this game is there any truth to that?

 

[pjennings]

According to Lawrie - it is true.

Will the players be on the pitch at the time?

Yes CB. Apparently once the whistle is blown you just choose a moment, jump the fence and join in for a bit of a kick.

I'd like to see you upfront please

Talay is out for two weeks for Fury too now...

Hard to know if it will be a blessing or not. Edds combining with Malik might be stronger option than Talay in any case.

leadership, wise though... I suspect they will be lesser for not having him.

It would be nice to see Matty get another 14 second goal, and Big Mac to score again like last year. However, this year I hope he rattles their net, not ours.

 

[MagpieMariner]

Going to be a big day for me. Spend the early afternoon in CCLC watching my beloved Collingwood smashing St Kilda (I hope), then a mad dash across the road to watch my beloved Mariners smashing the Fury (once again I hope).

I reckon 4-0 against a very flat NQ. Mcbreen 2 Perez 2 Crowd 9,500 and watch out all those kiddies when I smash one from outside the box at the palm tree end.

The press release from council seems like only the kids will be allowed on the grass.
Maybe if I get some Grecian 2000 and some Botox for the wrinkles, I might get a run.

 

[pommypete]

Hutcho to miss out with Olly back in the side.

I do believe that your "kids" (or maybe grandkids!! )just ran onto the pitch and you don't want to lose them 8)

Seriously though.. how are security going to keep control over everyone doing a mass pitch invasion at the end??? :

 

[Brighty]

Ohh, and on a brighter note..... I may be there to "wet the baby's head" with a few mates. Our baby girl was born last Sun night and am yet to have a good celebratory drink.... SOOO, I think with the birth of our first girl... AND a great Mariners triumph on the cards... Sat arvo sounds like a good day to do it!!

Ohh, and I'll make the call, 3-1 to us!! Couldn't give two shits who scores, as long as theres plenty, and they're coming from our boys!!!


FIRE the FARK UP!!!!! 8)
